VMax New VX4 Electric Scooter Hits 37.3 mph in Review

Wired tested the VMax New VX4 electric scooter, released in late 2025 as an upgraded version of the older VX4. The scooter boasts a top tested speed of 37.3 mph, even with a 215-pound rider, thanks to a 2800-watt peak motor. It features dual suspension, a TFT display, and an IPX6 water resistance rating. The 60-pound scooter offers three modes: Eco, Sport, and a hidden Beast Mode unlocked by pressing the power button five times. The long-range battery claims 68 miles in Eco mode, but real-world use in Beast mode on hilly terrain yielded about 33 miles. The reviewer praised its hill-climbing ability, stable high-speed ride, and simple folding mechanism, but noted the lack of adjustable acceleration and a bell instead of a horn.
